School's Out!

Here are a selection of my beginning drawing student's final projects. A project I devised a number of years ago, students select 2 (or more) xerox images from a selection I provide. They glue 'em down (to sheets of paper ranging from 18 x 24 to
24 x 36") and extend the values and textures in the copies out from their edges, creating a world in which they connect.

Yesterday we had a final critique on these, and the portfolios were finished & grades were filed.
I had really nice classes this semester.

But still:
yippee!!
Remember that 'painting every day' thing? Did we mention that December is a difficult month?
